The agency says a mule deer buck was shot off Casper Mountain Road/Circle Drive on Sept. 29 near where the pavement ends on the south side of the mountain. The location is in an area closed to hunting.

The deer was killed with archery equipment and left to waste.

Game Warden Daniel Beach asks anyone who may have observed suspicious activity in the area to contact him immediately.

Anyone with information on this or any wildlife crime is urged to call the Stop Poaching Tip Line 877-WGFD-TIP.
